I remember those days. "ReUse" stuff a 2nd or 3rd or 4th time instead of buying new. I reuse a lot of stuff. "Reduce" buying excess amount of stuff. You only "need" so much. Like...those that went insane and bought toilet paper at the beginning of Covid - Recycle...now this is where MARKETING got together thinking "lets put DUE DATES on EVERYTHING. People will toss it out when the date arrives. & buy more. "INSTEAD OF USING COMMON SENSE" I was taught to use my eyes and nose and taste-buds to tell if something is OFF or Gone Bad. Not some DATE. Because they dated everything. Laundry-soap, dish soap, Salt, Sugar, Vinegar, water, dry powders and meats in cans or on meat counters, Eggs, Milk, other dairy, dry cell batteries, makeup, Perfumes in glass bottles, Beer, whiskey, wine, house paint, etc. For some items, it was informative, for others IRRELEVANT. Pretty sure that Rat poison is still poisonous 10 years later. The rats react the same.
. But get the people into thinking about looking at the date and they will buy just because the stuff they have is OLD such a bleach or ammonia. They saw a way to sell MORE by this "Best Before" dating ...not that there is anything wrong with the product after the date . Motor oil does not age in the can. Some things do age such Batteries (even when not used they are slowly discharging) so if it sat on a store shelf for years and you need one for your smoke detector, the detector knows right off if the battery is weak as it starts beeping once every couple minutes...meaning weak battery. You have the receipt, you take the battery back and buy another one as they are dated as to when produced or best before date.
Milk, the same story. It has a 2 week shelf life and then you got to buy more as it starts to stink. Fresh fruit and veges do not need dating as you can see when they are rotting.
, You got to use common sense. Otherwise manufacturers will take all your money...as you buy in excess.
